Burgundy LaRue Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if LeBron starts taking mini-vacations during the season from now on unless Blatt becomes Pop Jr. and plays LBJ 30 minutes a night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LethalStriker Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I'm just glad that the finals are going to most likely be the Warriors vs. Cavaliers. So tired of the NBA championship having about 6-7 teams winning 75% of the titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 So, Cleveland is on the verge of taking the former New York Knicks nucleus to the NBA finals. That either says something really great about Lebron or really bad about the Knicks. Both. And RandomAct's bizarre obsession with Len Bias notwithstanding. Leave the memories alone! Something... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRGoldman Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I wouldn't be surprised if LeBron starts taking mini-vacations during the season from now on unless Blatt becomes Pop Jr. and plays LBJ 30 minutes a night.Doesn't that assume Blatt comes back Blatt out coached Brad Stevens, Tom Thibadeau, and the current coach of the year. Soundly. It wasn't even close. If he doesn't come back it would be insane. I think you watch too much ESPN. Also, assuming Kerr and he both make the finals, how rare is it for two first year coaches to make the finals? It obviously had to have happened once before, but aside from that?

JRGoldman Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 lol @ Blatt outcoaching Stevens. Boston's efficiency rating went down every game, Cleveland's went up. The Cavs scored more out of time outs and set plays. There aren't really stats to quantify coaching, but I think those start to tell a story beyond the talent disparity. Blatt's adjustments between games account for this and have been exceptional throughout the postseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The games were competitive and that's a credit to Stevens. The talent disparity was the largest gap we've seen in any series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrag Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I didn't watch enough of the Celtics/Cavs series to form an opinion, but Blatt sure as hell out coached Thibs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niners Fan in CT Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 If Curry is gone so is my interest in anything basketball related. They should cancel the finals if he can't play. Nobody would know the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Man, Houston has to be kicking themselves in the nuts for not taking advantage of a 20+ lead and Curry getting knocked out of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Another five degrees over, and he's a cripple. I was seriously worried he was paralyzed after he didn't move for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomAct Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Dwight should have been tossed for that. If Horford was tossed, Howard should be. Shitty call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie M. Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Horford shouldn't have been tossed, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Agree 100%. But since he was, and what Howard did being way worse, there should be some consistency. I actually agree with JVG. There should be one person in Secaucus that makes that call so it's consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jrag Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 No reason to compare it to Horford because different crew, but .... Taj kicking someone in the leg = Flagrant 2 Dwight chopping someone in the face = Flagrant 1 Ok, Joey.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 What makes the Gibson thing worse is that his leg was being held. Horford only needs to be brought up simply to point out the inconsistency of it all, but the two examples you provided prove the point. Also, JR Smith got suspended for doing the same thing Howard just did. The difference is that Bogut didn't drop like a ton of bricks like Crowder did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
